Chapter 8 RS-232C/GP-IB/LAN Interfaces
This chapter describes the GP-IB, LAN, and RS-232C interfaces, using the fol-
lowing symbols to indicate which information pertains to each interface.
Descriptions with no mark can be applied to the three of them.
: GP-IB only
: LAN only
: RS-232C only
Before Use • GP-IB is available only on Model BT3562-01 and BT3563-01.
• LAN is available only on Model BT3561A, BT3562A or BT3563A.
• Always make use of the connector screws to affix the GP-IB or RS-232C con-
nectors.
• When issuing commands that contain data, make certain that the data is pro-
vided in the specified format.
All instrument functions other than power on/off switching can be controlled via
GP-IB, LAN, and RS-232C interfaces.
• Resetting is supported.
• IEEE 488.2-1987 Common (essential) Commands are supported.
• Complies with the following standard:
Applicable standard IEEE 488.1-1987
*1
• This instrument is designed with reference to the following standard:
Reference standard IEEE 488.2-1987
*2
• If the output queue becomes full, a query error is generated and the output
queue is cleared. Therefore, clearing the output queue and query error output
from the deadlocked condition
*3
as defined in IEEE 488.2 is not supported.
